Welcome to the 2026 Edition of the Registered for Success Sale. It is a pleasure to assist this fantastic group of breeders in bringing this event to the public. I am excited for you to see what the group has put together for this year. Every partner in this sale wants to continue to improve the sale and the product they offer to better meet the needs of the customers. I believe that this set will be the highest quality group ever offered.
As you page through the book, you should notice that all of the breeders involved with the sale have the same opinion in terms of breeding cattle. First, the cattle must be functional in terms of their structure and doing ability. Second, they must have eye appeal but still have enough power to transmit through to their progeny. Finally, and most importantly, they must work for the producers that buy them. None of this works if the end user isn’t satisfied.
As genetics evolve at a rapid pace, the Registered for Success group is doing their best to stay ahead of the curve. They want to be able to incorporate economically relevant traits without sacrificing eye appeal and function. You will see this group of breeders base their mating decisions on not necessarily what is hot at the time, but more importantly what works best at the end of the day.
On behalf of the group, I want to thank everyone who has assisted them in getting to this point. It is not an easy task to put on a sale, and the crew that lends their time is very appreciated. Please feel free to reach out to any of the sale hosts or myself if we can be of assistance leading up to the sale.

THE ANGUS DIVISION
KLB FOREVER LADY 4118
The lead-off female for the 2026 Registered for Success Sale is a powerful daughter of DVAR Huckleberry that goes back to a Silveiras Style x OCC Anchor cow. Lot 1 is incredible in her build with excellent dimension while offering a stunning look from the side profile. Her pedigree is littered with breed leading genetics. Her sire is a Confidence Plus son that stems back to the great Sitz Henrietta Pride 643T donor, one of the highest income generators in the breed. The first 8 daughters of Huckleberry averaged $42,000 as spring heifer calves. This female is due early to another breed legend, LD Capitalist 316.
LD CAPITALIST 316, Service Sire
The first female from Mass Farms is one that I absolutely fell in love with when I went through the group. This Sandman daughter is outstanding and should be at the top of your list if you are looking for high caliber Angus genetics. Study her pedigree, and you will find sires like Fullback, Bismarck, First Class, and Style. Not to mention females such as Sandy, Princess, Blackcap May and Travett. Lot 2 is big ribbed, wide built, sound on her feet and legs, and balanced from the side. The way this one is bred, I would expect her to return the buyers investment many times over.
HLC HIGH POINT BEST OF BOTH, Service Sire
SELDOM REST SANDMAN, Sire
KLB MABEL 4107
This trio of Stellar daughters starts off with an exceptional female. Her look of quality and maternal build leads me to believe that she will produce at a high level for years to come. I am big fan of the
3 - KLB Mabel 4107
This pair of Stellar daughters check every box from a potential production standpoint. They are both good in terms of their structure, soft in their center body, and appear to be developing good udder placement. Note that lot 4 is out of a 6807 daughter. If you are looking to add cow power to your operation, I would highly recommend keeping all three of these females together.
Lot 6 is another high quality individual from Mass Farms. This Best of Both daughter goes back to the SLL Keymura Katy donor, that was the Reserve Grand Female at the American Royal a few years ago. Several maternal sisters to this female have sold through this sale and worked out well for their new owners. This female is safe to the EXAR Bedlam bull of Griswold’s; I would expect the resulting calf to have a nice balance of phenotype and genotype.
EXAR BEDLAM 2936B, Service Sire
Lot 6
- MF Keymura Katy 411
The next three females are all products of the Proven Queen cow family, a true cornerstone family in the breed. Lot 7 is ultra-complete in her build, with plenty of power and style to produce at the highest
THE PROVEN QUEEN COW FAMILY
Both of these females stem back to the Dameron PVF Proven Queen 010 donor, a powerhouse female that produced and entire generation of champions and high sellers. I think lot 8 has a very bright future. She is a well-balanced, eye appealing female with great feet and legs. Lot 9 is out of a Bubs Southern Charm female on the bottom side and has all the parts and pieces to be a great producer.
KLB FOREVER LADY 4187
Starting off this group of SydGen influenced females is an exceptional daughter of the Brandt herd sire SydGen Resolve 7132. Lot 10 is a powerful heifer that has the ability to cover ground with ease and still offers that eye appeal that is a must for this operation. Safe with a February LD Capitalist calf, we think this one could be a homerun purchase.
SYDGEN RESOLVE 7132, Sire
Lot 10 - KLB Forever Lady 4187
SYDGEN BRED FEMALES
I think lot 11 is a very high quality individual. She is a long spined, deep ribbed, massively constructed female with an elegant look. The bottom side of her pedigree represents the best of the Sydenstricker program. We feel that this heifer has the capability to go on and do big things in production. LD
Lot 12 is out of a SydGen bred dam and possesses a touch more growth at weaning than her contemporaries. In addition to this EPD advantage, she is a very complete, long spined individual that should have plenty of longevity.
Lot 11 - KLB Eulima 3551
Lot 12 - WB Rita 4935
SARAS DREAM 4102
It is quite possible that the most recognizable name in the show sector of the Angus breed is Saras Dream. Lot 13’s great-granddam is the legendary Silveiras Saras Dream 2335, the dam of the $600,000 UDE Saras Dream 1086. Sired by Hill Valley Reckoning, lot 13 has the same look and design made famous by her cow family. From a genetic and phenotypic perspective, we feel that this female can produce at a high level.
KLB SARAS DREAM 3206, Maternal Sister to the Dam of Lot 13 HILL
KLB Saras Dream 4102
Lot 14 is a very complete, well balanced female that has a great look from the side. While sorting through the offering ahead of sale time, I thought this female would make an excellent cow given her rib shape and structural integrity.
ANGUS BRED HEIFERS
This female has tons of potential. Not only is she a high quality individual, but she is also bred extremely well. A maternal sister was a featured lot in last years sale that went to Swanson Cattle Company in Peterson, Iowa. Place this female in a P&G scenario and we believe that she will excel.
WB PRIDE 3512, Maternal Sister to Lot 15
MF KEYMURA KATY 418
Make sure to check this female out on sale day, she will not disappoint you. I believe that her genetic potential rivals any female in the sale. Her sire, Schiefelbein Unreal 242, is a popular bull owned by Thomas and Griswold. This female offers a unique tandem of upper echelon phenotype with a balanced EPD package. She offers many economically relevant traits that are within the top one-third of the breed including CED, BW, MILK, ANGLE, RE, $M & $W. A common theme in the industry is infusing more EPDs into phenotype driven cattle, here is a female that does just that.
Lot 16 - MF Keymura Katy 418
DIXIE ERICA & NORTHERN PRINCESS
This Best of Both daughter offers exceptional calving ease figures and is in the top 10% of the breed for $M. I appreciate her overall build and look of quality, alongside her maternal rib shape and structure. The Dixie Erica cow family is one of the most consistent and sought after in the breed. A maternal sister sold in last years sale.
I have this female very highly marked. She is moderate framed, big bodied, and offers a great look from the side. Sired by Roundtable, she offers all the genetic potential in the world. Her dam is a FirstN-Goal x Fullback combination that has been a good producer. Take note of this female when you get to Anita.
MF DIXIE ERICA 332, Maternal Sister to Lot 17
Lot 19 has a proven, predictable pedigree that has stood the test of time. Sired by Plainview Lutton, she has the same design and quality as many of her siblings. I thought she was one of the best females in the entire sale from the profile. The cow power behind this female is simply exceptional.
This is a very intriguing female in terms of her pedigree. Sired by the highly valued Boyd Bellringer, lot 20 gives you a total outcross pedigree that should allow you to mate her in multiple ways. With her added calving ease, you have the ability to take her to some of the breeds leading show and performance sires. Another female from the Keymura Katy cow family as well.
Lot 19 - MF Keymura Katy 405M
Lot 20 - MF Keymura Katy 423M
THE SIMMENTAL DIVISION
21 MS INSPIRED M12
An excellent way to kick off the Simmental division. This purebred female has all the bells and whistles needed to be a high income generator. Tremendous in her balance with a good look from the side,
Lot 21 - MS INSPIRED M12
This is one of my favorites from Nathan. She is stout built, good looking, and hairy. Of anything in the lineup, I think this one has the best chance to make a dual-registered show heifer. Stemming from the Gotta Love cow family, her pedigree stacks Executive Order, Pays the Price and Uprising. She is safe to the high numbered, high phenotype, National Champion GCC Night Owl.
22 - MFIS GOTTA LOVE 421M
HEIFERS WITH PROVEN PEDIGREES
Produced by the decorated Broker daughter, JS Diamond Star 15C, lot 23 is a stout made, strip faced daughter with lots of potential. She is a big bodied, bold sprung female that has a look of quality, and is great on her feet and legs. Note her sire, JC Mr Talon, a Hooks Eagle son that has been a very popular producer.
This female is a low percent Simmental with a stacked pedigree. She is sired by a Final Product son and out of a direct daughter of Meyer Ranch 734. You can’t help but appreciate her look and design in tandem with her maternal shape through the center part of her body. A maternal sister sold in last years sale.

THE KEYMURA KATY COW FAMILY
Another baldie female, three-quarter blood heifer with loads of quality. She is an Executive Order sired female out of the Keymura Katy cow family that has been so prevalent throughout the sale. This is a stout featured, sound structured individual with added eye appeal.
Sired by Mass’s resident herd sire, MFIS On the Mark, this female is very complete in her build and structural integrity. A paternal sister from the same cow family was a sale feature last year. This female is one of those “no holes” kind that will produce for you year after year.

MFIS KATY 344L, Paternal Sister From the Same Cow Family as Lot 26
HIGH QUALITY PERCENTAGE FEMALES
BOUNTY 227E LEVIE 229L
I have this higher percentage female marked very well. She offers that great “brood cow” look with plenty of extras. She is long spined, deep ribbed, sound structured and has that look of quality. If you need a female to not only look good but add a shot of EPD’s, look no further. Here is a heifer that balances phenotype and genotype very well.
This half-blood red heifer is a Hammer granddaughter with a great look. She will definitely stand out on sale day, not only because she is the only red Simmental in the sale, but more importantly because of her overall quality and design. I think she will fit well into a dual-registered or club calf scenario. A maternal sister sold in last years sale to Carter Krichau.
Lot 27 - MCLC BOUNTY 227E LEVIE 229L
Lot 28 - BFSH MONICA M784
BFSH LYDIA 784L, Maternal Sister to Lot 28
All three of these heifers are out of the Henderson donor, BRAC Cowboy Queen 230H. Two are sired by Quantum Leap and the third by Hooks Admiral. Pay attention to these females as they could turn into the sleepers of the sale. Not only do they offer genetic consistency, but they also boast an excellent phenotype.
29 MS QUANTUM LEAP M13
30 MS QUANTUM LEAP M15
Lot 29 - MS QUANTUM LEAP M13
THE HEREFORD DIVISION
As the old saying goes, low on quantity, high on quality. These two Hereford heifers will be worth a look on sale day. Lot 32 is an extremely high quality female with length, body depth and eye appeal. She is safe to Churchill Majestic, that alone should add plenty of value to this heifer.
HEREFORD BRED HEIFERS
Lot 33 stems back to the great Cotton family, that has been responsible for as many national champions as any cow family in the breed. This female blends pedigree depth and eye appeal to the highest degree.
Lot 32 - BFSH PRINCESS L87
Lot 33 - BFSH MISS YELLOWSTONE M01
CHURCHILL MAJESTIC 903G, Service Sire to Lot 32
THE FALL BRED DIVISION
PROVEN QUEEN HALF-BLOOD FEMALE
BFSH PROVEN QUEEN M21
New this year to the Registered for Success Sale is a set of very high quality fall born females. Leading off that division, is a Simmental who is sired by the National Champion Double Up, and out of the Proven Queen cow family. I have this heifer highly marked as being stout, well built and good looking. She stacks together a tremendous pedigree, on top of her advanced physical attributes.
KLB SARAS DREAM M221
This lead-off fall born Angus female is pretty special in my opinion. I have always liked the Annuity sired cattle and feel that they can make excellent bulls and heifers. This heifer is as good of representation of that sire group as I have seen. Extra stout, with plenty of rib shape and body depth, along with an excellent look from the side. The maternal granddam to this female is a full sister to the great Colburn Primo.
CVA SARAS DREAM 335, Maternal Sister to the Dam of Lot 35
CAR DON ANNUITY, Sire
SLA KLB Saras Dream M221
This daughter of Collison Alpha 028 will hit you hard on sale day. With a pedigree that is bred for phenotype, she does not disappoint. Her dam is a direct daughter of PVF Blackbird 3070, the dam of PVF Blacklist and a full sister to a past NAILE and Fort Worth Champion Female.
FALL BORN ANGUS FEMALES
This Capitalist x Proven Queen bred female was stamped by her famous sire. She has plenty of shape and dimension, alongside added eye appeal. 316 sired cattle are known for their overall quality and longevity, this heifer checks both of those boxes.
PVF BLACKBIRD 3070, Maternal Granddam to Lot 36
SCHIEFELBEIN UNREAL 242, Service Sire to Lots 35-39
A pair of half-sisters sired by SydGen Resolve 7132. Both females are complete in their overall build, with plenty of capacity and look. The Resolve sire group has done a good job so far and his daughters are some of the best in the herd. Keep this pair together to add quality and longevity to your herd.

THE
FROZEN GENETIC DIVISION
CVA SARAS DREAM
40 CVA SARAS DREAM 201 FLUSH
The Brandt family wanted to showcase a few of the up and coming donors that they have in the program. Leading that group is CVA Saras Dream 201, a maternal sister to Colburn Primo out of the paternal grandsire of Primo, EXG RS First Rate. This female has already proven her worth in production. She is the dam of the Champion Overall Female at the 2024 Texas Angus Preview Show and NJAS Class Winner shown by Jera Johnson. That female was the $25,000 top seller in the 2024 Hunter Angus spring sale. Brandts will guarantee 6 transferable embryos and anything over that will be split between the buyer and the seller.
Lot 40 - CVA SARAS DREAM 201
This is a mating that is as close to a sure thing as it gets in this operation. Sired by the Show Bull of the Year BNWZ Executive Decision, and by a proven producer, EXAR Blackcap 5686. This donor was the high selling bred heifer at the 2017 Sydenstricker sale commanding $20,000. She has gone on to produce a female that was named Division Champion at the 2025 Iowa State Fair Simmental Show. The first Eddie calves have exceeded expectations, further proving the value of this mating. Brandts will guarantee one pregnancy if the embryos are implanted by a certified technician.
